Cool. I thought the TR was too dark for my taste, and surprisingly didn't offer a very long delay time (550ms for the long setting), so I flipped it. I have an AD9 that does exactly what I want from a shorter delay, so I'm hoping the Limbo III will do some fun stuff at longer settings for me, plus all the good modulation stuff. I'm getting the full size version, so hopefully won't run into any of those level issues, given the expanded gain / mix controls.

Yeah let me know what you think, I thought the artifacts that the Limbo presented at higher delay settings were really rad too if thats your thing plus if you crank the delay time, the modulation, and volume it really sounded crazy. Yeah the TR seemed kinda feature pack for just a 550ms delay haha. Ill probably go to my local shop sometime soon and go try it.

Honestly the big one seems a lot cooler since I believe you can get chorus tones out of it. If that's the case, I will probably get the big one in the future since I rarely use chorus and delay but having either or is nice.

Okay so I have to gush about the Nemesis and I didn't want to start a new thread for it.
I haven't had a nice multi-engine digi delay since I sold my Boss DD-20 over a year ago, and I really didn't enjoy using that very much for a few years leading up to getting rid of it. In that time I got super into fucked up IC delays and all kinds of pitch-fucked, noisy, and/or dark sounding echoes. I was pretty happy with having only those options, but when I would have bands come in to record, sometimes I was unable to give them a nice reliable & clean delay, so I decided to experiment with the Nemesis. Let me just say that I am blown away by that thing. The onboard engines all sound pretty great, but the extra engines from the Neuro app seal the dang deal. Their Benson Echorec engines are really great (never heard the real thing so I am not saying it is a great replica, but just a great sound on the Nemesis), as well as the Resonant Analog (is this why everyone loves the Misty Cave?) and Oil Can voices.
I've just sat the Nemesis at the end of my chain since I got it and I'm incredibly happy with it. When I got the Alexander Super Radical (which I enjoyed, but couldn't vibe with in the end - lack of tonal control is a no-go for me) I thought I might just not like digi delays anymore, but it turns out I just needed a different interface. I've barely gotten into the deep editing, but that looks like a whole world of options - I just don't have the patience to design a sound from the ground up right now. I also look forward to actually getting into some MIDI/CV-syncing with the Nemesis, but for not having read a page of the manual I feel like I've gotten a pretty good grasp of how to use an incredibly full-featured & versatile delay pedal.

Also stereo fucking outputs. I haven't played in stereo in 2+ years, and I forgot how good that shit feels. I hooked up to my Twin Reverb & my roommate's DeVille, sat in the middle, and blissed out for hours.

I make t-shirts, patches, koozies, buttons, CDs, sometimes tapes, and eventually i'll start working on pedals again. DM me for pricing!

Love mine. Love the stereo.

Haven't deeply messed with any of the engines in a while (got a few presets I'm using all the time)... but according to posts on TGP from source audio folks, a bi-directional computer editor should be dropping soon... so I'm going to dive back in once that does

Yeah I heard about that as well. That's gonna be a whole new world, having the pedal and editor communicate both ways. PLUS no phone into the R input so you can still get clean guitar/whatever signal if you use the Nemesis as your mono to stereo converter (which I do)
